If orange is your color then your're in luck. For 2012 its going to be all about Tangerine. Every year Pantone releases and determines the color for the year. Tangerine Tango which is described as “high-visibility, magnetic hue" in other words reddish orange.

Expect to see this bold color everywhere, from fashion, to home interior your sure to see a punch of tangerine. While this color may not be for everyone if used in small doses it can really add the perfect pop to your space and wardrobe.

So last night I was searching for a chevron pattern and came across one at Sunset where you can print it out.....Yay... Once I printed the pattern I cut the zig zag shapes and glued it on cardstock paper that I had from my scrapbook stash.

In less than 10 minutes I created a simple yet fun piece of art right from home. I framed it in a West Elm frame that I had in the closet waiting to be used. I was originally going to spray paint it on canvas but I like the softness and modern look it has in the frame. You can do so many things with it. The possibilities are endless!

Well we sold all of our older appliances (gotta love Craigslist) but now we have no stove for 4 days. At first I was a little excited because that means no cooking for me but now I have to say I'm getting a little tired of take out. Matt aka hubby cooked some burgers on the grill tonight and although he burned them just a bit it was worth not having take out food. Let's see what tommorrow will bring, food that is. Wednesday can't come here fast enough (thats when we get our stove).Yippee..........
